| We have guests coming for lunch in about two hours. I don't entertain much any more, but used to be quite the hostess. I figure I have about an hour to play here on the computer and then I have to get to work putting together the "Breakfast Bake" that I found here on the Forum. I've got a fruit salad with yogurt dressing, a coffee cake (bought, are you kidding), and Mimosas to drink along with coffee and tea. Barb: Woohoo! Great picture! I can't believe that you are still smiling, with 400 yards to go. Good for you. I admire your fortitude, girl. Prayers ascending for you and your sis with your Dad. Oh gosh, it is not easy. It would be so much better if he volunteered to give them up. My Mom (bless her heart, now dead) decided to give up her keys after she backed into a building! Sheesh. She was somewhere in her 80's then. She died at 92. Alida: Wow! what a day for you, my dear. It seems that there is never a good time for death to come knocking, but when it does, as you say, it is a shock. This breast cancer epidemic just needs to be stopped! Just think about the research dollars that would go into it if there were an epidemic that attacked the scrotum and it's contents. Nuff said. Good luck getting everything done before the trip. I am just bummed that we won't see you in Chicago!!! Maybe on our way back next Spring we can swing up to KC. That would be cool, huh? Brenda: Ya know, somehow I would have guessed that you were a zit picker. I am too!!! How about that?? But, I have been blessed with really good skin and haven't had much trouble that way. DH, on the other hand, has little skin things all over his back. He won't let me touch them!! It drives me crazy. Being from SoCa, I tanned and sunburned many many times. Therefore, I peeled many many times. There was absolutely nothing more satisfying than that. DH rolls up his upper lip and says, "Ewwwww," when I talk about it. Of course, with the ability that I have to deny, I also know that I am a prime candidate for Melanoma because of all that burning. "I'll think about it tomorrow," as Scarlett said. I'm thinking that you should bring your knitting when we get together. I need to see it. I'll show you this damn prayer shawl. It was four weeks yesterday until we leave. I'm getting excited. There was an article about how to save gas with a conventional car in the Globe this morning. We're doing it all wrong. C'est la vie! Judy: I told DH about your idea about parking in the parking lot of a hotel and he said he thought that was a good idea and wouldn't mind doing it at all! That man never stops surprising me. It's been 26 years! I think it was when I said, "FREE access." Okay, gang. I think that Shelley is back. Either that or someone else is using her IM acct. She is signed in, but "away." this morning. Sheleeeelllllll!!!!! Are you back? How was it? How are you feeling? When is your surgery? Monday, (oh that's tomorrow, I've lost track), I'll write the story of what happened to me on Thursday and Friday and will continue Monday. It's what I lost yesterday in my post. I'm 175.2 this morning. It's going to be slow. Coming off in hundredths of a pound. 175.6 yesterday. Pheewww. It's 48 degrees, and rainy and cloudy. It poured last night and came through the basement ceiling. DA*MN! Not much, but enough to stain the ceiling tile. I'm awfully glad that we are on a hill. There is flash flooding all over MA. Even our basement is on a hill, so no worries. It's the pounding rain that is the problem. Somehow it gets into the wall and runs down into the ceiling. We have a fabulous handyman who will figure it out. Well, gotta go and get my face painted so people will recognize me. With all the humidity, I've just given up on my hair. Au natural. Curls and all. I put on a new pair of jeans this morning and I look HOT! :gorgeous: Got a purple top that starts light and becomes dark purple at the hips. I can hardly stand myself! (No cracks, okay!?) Back later, Peace, Peg

| Barb, you look fantastic--and better than that, even, is that you look happy. I'm so glad that even the ugliness of the vandalism that morning didn't get you down for long. So senseless! I hope you, your sisters and Dad, can come to an agreement so that the driving issue isn't a difficult one. I've known some seniors to actually be a little relieved not to be driving, but of course not all. Alida, I am so sorry for all the bad news you had yesterday. Oh my goodness.....I can't imagine hearing that many sad things all in one day--are you reeling still? I imagine the schedule for you trip is pretty tight, and not the best of circumstances, but if there any time for us to meet, let me know, ok? If not, please don't feel badly about it. We WILL all get together one of these days. So PEG! I thought something was up with you! Now I have to wait until tomorrow? Not fair! I've fried my brain trying to figure it out, LOL, not that it takes a huge amount of voltage. Hope it is/was something good.....I imagine your brunch was a big success, but DRAT on the water damage. Quote:
I'd love to see your prayer shawl, and you can check out my many pair of half-knitted socks Today was one of those "not much energy" days. I had some of Maggie's cereal this morning, but honestly think I need a few more carbs than that, because I was just dragging. I've got a container made, though, so maybe I'll try adding some berries tomorrow. Oh! I've got some low sodium V-8 in little cans, too--I keep forgetting about them. Guess I could add a celery stick, tabasco, etc., and imagine myself as being quite a bit more sophisticated than I am. Dad's supposed to be on his way home. It's a long drive, so I hope it's uneventful. Later kids.

| Hi gang!!! I'm baaaackkkk....LOL. I missed you guys bunches! Hardly a day went by that I didn't think of all of you, and would even find myself saying "my friend from MA or TX, or KC or Chicago, or republic of Georgia, or wherever, did such and such and said this, that and the other"...well, you know what I mean We got home late last evening, and after unloading everything, sorting laundry, going through all the mail, and everything else that one has to do after vacation, well, I was one *whupped pup* LOL. I spent the better part of almost 2 hours perusing the site here, and trying to catch up with the goings on of everyone. So, forgive me if I leave anyone out, but here goes.... Rachel, and Alida, I'm so sorry for your losses. I hope the sadness in your hearts is soon replaced with wonderful and sweet memories. My sincere condolences to you both. Peg...woohoo for you girlfriend...you really did well with the BTB! Also hope the transition to the new home for Deuts goes well. Teel, man, that stinks you have to move all over again...your poor furkids! Hopefully you can find a way to stay in your home while the new floor is being layed and the kitties can at least remain in familiar, but noisey surroundings? Sending good vibes to you, kiddo. Brenda, wow! You have had bunches of travels, eh? I'm impressed with camping out in Montana and Wyoming. A soul can wake up awful cold on the side of a mountain...LOL. If we could figure out a way to live in the mountains, we'd be there tomorrow! Real estate is obscenely expensive in Colorado :( Ilse, so sorry to hear of your ortho woes. Hope you get a plan of attack soon, and things look up for you. Hang in there! Barb, WTG on your race! I can only imagine the satisfaction you got from finishing such a race. Also, I like your poem. I, too, like the cadence of rhyme. Donna, you are on holiday already...have a grand time and don't even think about your work!!! I'm so proud of you for your talk with your boss! WTG!!! OK, I'll try and be brief and not bore you all to death about my trip. We arrived Saturday(10/1) about 1700 in Arvada at my girlfriends house. She is a childhood classmate that I lost contact with in 1966 and I found her after searching the internet when I organized my 30th HS class reunion in 2002...long story, but we are 2 peas in a pod for the most part! We have the best time together. Anyway, we dined out at a Mexican food place and had a few Maritas(remember Margarita's American cousin?) LOL. We stayed up talking until almost midnight; our DH's also hit it off when they met back in 2002 as well, so the guys had a good time also. Then, Sunday morning, we had a delightful brunch, then said goodbye to our friends and headed for our cabin(rental) in the mountains. We stayed in the mountains until Thursday, the 6th. We had beautiful weather Sunday and Monday, and I had some incredible photo sessions with stellar jays, a coyote, a 6x6 bull elk, and wild turkey. The aspens were mostly in peak in the lower elevations. On Tuesday, a cold front blew in on the front range, and we had falling temperatures, with sleet and snow in the higher elevations(above 9000 ft). We still went out on Tuesday, but changed our hiking plans, and did a short hike versus a longer one we had planned. The weather can change on a dime this time of year in the high country, so inexpierenced hikers should take care. We are not fully seasoned hikers, but we are not greenhands either, so we decided to go with the shorter hike and not risk it on a long hike. Ended up being a good plan, I think. Wednesday, the weather was a little better, and we were out most of the day photographing aspens and any wildlife that happened to appear. Thursday, we left the RMNP(Rocky Mountain National Park) and headed back down to Arvada to our friend's house again. We went out to dinner to PF Chang's; very tasty! On Friday, we went shopping ALL DAY at a mall called Flatirons Crossing. Super place...I highly recommend it if you are ever in the Denver area. We had a blast and dropped some serious $$$$...LOL. My DGF also set me up with her line of cosmetics and skin care products(she's an aesthetician). I had been wanting to change my skin care regimen, so the timing was perfect. On Friday night we all went to dinner at a little neighborhood Italian eatery. Needless to say, my eating was not totally on plan, but I didn't really overindulge on bad things either. This morning, the scales were the same as the day I left! Tomorrow may be another story with the usually hateful scales, so we'll see if I really did *maintain*...LOL. Anyway, as far as I'm concerned, it was the *perfect* vacation, and I do feel *de-stressed*...until I think about going back to work....LOL! ![]() Now, the news about my surgery. The dermatological surgeon only does this procedure, called a Moh's procedure, on Mondays. I am scheduled for Oct. 31st...fantastic...answer the trick or treaters with a huge bandage on my nose...LOL. Anyway, that's the first available appt he had, so that's the way it is. Then after he is finished, I go directly to the plastic surgeon and find out about the repair. Hopefully, the BCC has not infiltrated very deep and the staging or resection will not be to deep, and the *defect* can just be sutured and no skin grafting will be involved. Please keep your fingers crossed for me on this, and keep those good vibes comin' my way? Well, that's about it from my little corner of the world. I have one more day off, and will return to work on Tuesday. I still have some chores to do, but the day is flying by. It's back to the gym for me in the morning, and I hopped back on the wagon with my food today, so, that's my story, and I'm stickin' to it ![]() I'll try and post some digi pics later this evening. I did take a few digis, but mostly I do 35mm, so it's off to the film developers tomorrow. It's good to be *home* Love to you all! Shelley

| Judy, bless you. Hope the mid term grading goes quickly and the practice meet is a success for the kids and for you. I do hope we'll be hearing from you during the day. Are you from New Mexico, Judy??? If so, where? Have a good evening everyone. Finished watching one of the Inspector Dalgleish series on Mystery! and will try to get myself in bed before midnight.....ha!

| Good morning Gang! Welcome Back Shelley!!!! The view from your cabin is absolutely beautiful! I can almost smell that crisp mountain air. I am glad everything went well and you and DH had a fabulous time. I am looking forward to more pictures, please! Also sending some vibes so you can win the lottery and buy a piece of heaven in CO! Many prayers are heading to OK for your surgery on Halloween. Well, you could wrap your whole body in gauze and answer the door as "The Mummy." Congrats on holding the scale at bay. That's always a winner. I'll bet the hiking burned off all those Maritas . . . . Peg, so sorry about your ceiling. You just had that repaired not too long ago, right? I wonder if it's possible to prevent leaks when there's strong blowing winds that force the rain where it normally doesn't go. Think that was my problem, too. My leak areas have stayed dry during normal rain . . . Now you have me sitting on the edge of my chair. WHAT happened last week?? Guess I'll just have to wait until tomorrow . . . New Jeans with a purple top? Wow. You'll have to fight the guys off, curly hair and all (which is a look I have always loved. My hair is straight). And if you come through KC in the Spring, Barb could join us! Give it some serious thought, OK? Brenda, I, too, am upset that my little plan to get to Chicago for our get together has changed. Always Something. Send me a PM and let me know what suburb you are in. But you're right. My schedule for this trip is pretty tight. I did get a call from my friend (Rogers Park) and she offered to put us up. She's also going to go to the wake. I am so touched! Wish I could think of a way to swing by Bolingbrook to shop Ikea. So close yet so far . . . . The edict from my DH went down yesterday that we MUST be on the road back to KC on Saturday evening. We'll stop overnight in Moline, then get an early start for KC. The reason for all this hurry? So we can be home or at least in radio range of the Chiefs game Sunday at noon. SIGH. Hope your Dad made it home safe and sound. Where did he go? I know you mentioned it but I'm in my CRS mode . . . Sorry you didn't have much energy yesterday. I had "Barb's Cereal" yesterday, which is fairly close to Maggie's Cereal. I added a 1/4 cup of whey protein and cooked it a little longer until it was really thick. That stuff sure is filling. LOL about having a faux Bloody Mary. Oh hell, add the vodka and have a good time. Between the tomato and the celery, it's mostly veggies anyway . . . . Judy, you are one busy lady! Mid term grading, doing the AcaDec thingy, and worrying about knives at school . . . whew! But if this site will be available at school, we'll look forward to your popping in! Thank you all for your condolences. I appreciate them. Life goes on, as it always does. I got a book from the library yesterday. Allison DuBois' "Don't Kiss Them Goodbye." From the book jacket: "The True Story of the Woman who Inspired the Hit NBC Television Series MEDIUM." Ok. It's not a great book. She spends a lot of time telling parents how to nurture "the gift" if their children happen to be psychic. I WANT to believe, but since I have not had any direct evidence, I still have little niggling doubts. But I am glad I read it. She mentions that sometimes guidance comes through in your dreams. I do remember after my mother died, my sister and I were dividing up her jewelry. She had a lot! I felt guilty about it. Because I had to leave to get back to KC, we did this the day after the funeral. After I got home, that first night, I did have a dream where my Mom told me it was OK that we sorted through her jewelry! She also told me she was fine and happy. Hmm. Makes you wonder. In that same vein . . . my mother always told the story of what happened to her as she was flying with my grandmother to CA to visit her dying sister. She was on the plane and closed her eyes in prayer. She was praying that they would make it there in time. She was holding a hand during this prayer. She thought is was my grandmother's. When she opened her eyes, she was not holding my grandmother's hand. Who's hand was she holding? Ends up Nordy (her name was North Star!) died just about that time. OK, enough spooky stuff. I have a busy day. Whoops. I forgot to weigh myself this AM. That's a bad sign. Tells me I am slipping. Gotta get BTB!!!! Have a good day, everyone!

| Shelley, the picture is gorgeous, and it sounds like you had the best time possible. My sister has a home at 9000 ft. near Dillon, so I can enjoy the mountains from time to time--even though I'm more of a seaside person. Hope all goes smoothly with the surgery. You've got a good attitude. Alida, hugs and traveling mercies. Fly-by hello to everyone else. Gotta run and get ready for work. Monday, Monday. |

| Hi Gang! So good to read all your posts from yesterday. Alida: My B.A. and M.A. in Counseling Psychology concentrated in transpersonal psychology. This includes learning ALL the theories, but concentrates on this one, which was pioneered by Abraham Maslow. (You know, the "hierarchy of needs" guy?) Anywhoo, I learned through good research, that a child has natural psychic abilities (that means us too) up until age 9. By that age, we have been acculturated, and we lose our abilities. It is a natural ability that can be cultivated just as any other natural ability that we have. When you learn about it, it loses it's "spookiness" and becomes just another one of the things that we can decide to nurture, or not. It's like meditation. You know, when you start ~ it is so dang hard to clear your mind? But, after several months, or years, you get good enough at it to be able to actually meditate for a few minutes! Or, becoming a runner ~ you have to practice and train for a long time in order to be good at it. Same principles with our psychic abilities. I have psychic abilities that I well remember as a child. But, they scared the begeesus our of me. So, I stopped. When I was studying it, as an adult, I practiced for a while, and then decided that it just wasn't something I was interested in, so stopped. End of today's psychology lecture! I will try to make it happen to come to KC in the Spring. I'm going to see Judy then too. We are stopping in Carrolton for a visit. May also spend a week in a time share down south in Texas. Can't remember the name of the town. Judy: So good to see you! It sounds as though this is going to be a really busy week for you! I'm so glad that you have access at school now. You can stop in when you have a minute. Barb: Don't work too hard today. So, are you sore from the run yesterday? Please say yes. I just can't get over what good shape you are in. Shelley: So glad you are back. What a gorgeous view. Though, I have to go with Barb, I'm a seaside gal. My DH is in love with the mountains. We will have some spectacular views in Redlands too. Your vacation sounds just perfect. And, how wonderful that your DH's got along too. That makes it so much better. Rachel and I are going to sample those Maritas when we meet later this month. Well, I am. I don't know about Rachel. Terry: Good to see you pop in too. How are you doing? Brenda: What are you going to do today? I bet you are going to do some of that "power" knitting that you do! When I see you next month, I expect to see those fabulous socks. Maybe you can actually show me some things about knitting. Wouldn't that be incredible?? Well, this is getting long, and I will post my story in another post just below this. I ate way too much and drank too much champagne yesterday. It showed on the scale this morning. Up TWO pounds. It must be some water weight, so I will drink extra special today and try to get rid of it. TTL that 180 is a long way away now, and I don't have to see that number if I don't want to. (And, I can tell you, I don't want to!!) But, we had a great visit with friends we only see once or twice a year. Both couples travel often so I got some great tips from them on what to take and what to buy at the Salvation Army! Ha! Peace, Peg

| Here's what happened to me last week ~ and continuing into this week. Background: I promised my DGD (DH's daughter's daughter) that I would co-sign a student loan for her. She is a very ambitious, and very hard working girl. She has worked to virtually support herself since she was about 12. Her parents have no money. She left their home when she was 17. Now, she has gotten into the University and moved there and started classes. She is now 19. She has secured a job there, and has work study. I mean this girl is really responsible. Since I was the only one working when we started this several months ago with Bank of America, we (DH and I) decided that it would be best if I did the co-signing rather than him. On Thursday, while I was lying in agony on my bed in my darkened bedroom with my migraine, I got a call from the loan officer at the Bank of America in LA. It seems that I had a collection debt on my credit report from Sprint. Well, I've never had a Sprint account. My mind went straight to "identity theft" and "fraud." The bank officer was not impressed. (This is the bleeping bank that has held up her loan since July because of one thing or another ~ all their fault) I went ballistic! Swore at the loan officer (my bad) and got off the line to file a fraud report with the credit agency. Called Sprint. Yes, I indeed did have an unpaid account in my name and SS# in the amount of $720! Opened in 1991. They wouldn't tell me where. So, I told them that it was an identity theft. The person I talked to gave me instructions about how to go to their website and file a fraud report. I started that and discovered that it takes 60-90 days to get it even started. DGD is WAITING for her money. It is what she needs to live on! So, I called Sprint back and explained. No dice. I should call the collection agency. Maybe they would tell me something to clear it. Or call the credit agency. I did both. Collection agency tells me that they "wrote it off" in April and told Sprint to take it off my credit report. But, they no longer have Sprint as a client, so no luck. Went online and paid $50. to get my full credit report. Discovered that the account was opened by my DD3 in 1991 when they lived in Wisconsin. When I got over the shock. I called Sprint and paid the bill. They gave me a confirmation #. I called the bank and told them I had paid the bill. They need proof. I gave them the conf. #. That's not enough. It has to be written proof. (DD NEEDS her money) So, several calls to Sprint (each one accompanied by at least a 20 minute wait on hold) revealed that they absolutely will not provide ME or the bank with written proof. Several calls to the bank reveal that they will not approve the loan without written proof. This is what I have done ~ exclusively on Thursday (midst migraine) and Friday. The charge now shows up on my credit card, and the payment to the card by me. I'm going to call the bank today and see if I can email it to her. I have confronted my DD3. She is going to pay me back. (she says) She still owes me thousands I have already loaned her for many things. She knows that I don't have money to loan now that I am retired. She is sorry. This is the one who lives in Pasadena and makes more than I have ever made in my life, and her partner does too. Sigh. So, I'm back on the phone today with the bank. I've documented all this, with phone numbers and names. But, at this point, I just don't see any resolution. I have not seen my credit report for years. We never borrow any money, and we haven't bought anything big for years that we haven't paid for with cash. I could have (I learned after paying my $) gotten it free. I was frantic. So, that's it. Peace, Peg

| Shell, yes, I was also going to say WOOHOO on the scale staying the same after your vacation. Lots of hiking and good mountain air, I'd say! Peg, oh my goodness, what a horrid mess. I do so hope this can be resolved soon, both for your sake and your DGD's. Dealing with all these "caring" customer service types is bad enough without having a migraine on top of it, too. ACK! Well, I suspect I know what you'll be up to today, unfortunately. I've got to think (hope, pray) it will all come out right for you in the end, but I can't imagine the shock, horror, pain, and aggravation it has caused already, much less however long it will take to resolve. Hugs, Peg...and don't take those two pounds to heart. You're doing great. Ok, I think maybe another big GROUP HUG is in order. <sigh> None of us are having particularly stress-free lives out there right now, are we. TB, have you decided on your flooring yet? Alida, I've never been particularly psychic, even as a child, but learning to heed my instincts and pay attention to coincidences has been a gift. So many people do have otherwise unexplainable occurances that I think it would be shortsighted to deny the infinite possibilities, even if I don't experience them often myself... It's interesting to speculate, at the very least. I'll PM you my location. LOL! at having to get back for the big game! Nothing of note on my plate today. Errands, paperwork, this and that around the house. Woopee, eh? I'd rather be knitting but reality calls.

| Hi guys, Well....boohoo....my vacation is over :( Got the call from my partner in pre-op and we have early cases in the morning, so it'll be a 0400 day. Hope I can get myself back in the routine...I've been staying up rather late while on vacation....oops! LOL. Judy, there is just something about the mountains; I almost have *withdrawl* if I can't get there at least one time a year. Hope your homesickness gets a cure soon Peg...man oh man...what a mess you have to deal with. I'm so, so sorry. I'm glad you found out the truth though; doesn't make it any more pleasant to deal with. I think I would pretty much be *hoppin' mad*! Hope things work out asap. Bren...LOL at the *reality calls*. It bites, doesn't it? I'd rather be sewing most of the time versus working, or some other reality chore...aacckk. Maybe you could *budget* in some time for knitting like you do your timed chores? I know...I couldn't just spend 30 minutes sewing...I'd only be getting started good, and it would be time to stop. Well...scratch that idea! LOL. Is dad home yet? Alida, have a safe trip to Chicago. Again, my condolences to you. You and Bren are going to meet? How exciting!! You girls have fun!! Teel, what up??? Have you made your decision on the floor yet? Good vibes to you and the kitties Rachel...(((hugs))) to you! Barb, that's cool that your sis is in the mountains. I totally understand being a beach person vs. a mountain gal. I'm NOT a tropical person...don't even ask me to put on a swim suit...LOL! Give me the cool, crisp air and a pair of comfy hiking boots, and I'm happier than a lark. Different stokes for different folks...and that's a good thing, as Martha says Well, the scales were a little more hateful this morning...up 1.2 lbs. But, all in all, if that's all that shows up, I'll be very pleased. Hi to everyone else ![]() later, chicks... S.
